**Official MikroTik Hardware **

Worth updating to?

They seem to have worked out the DoH properly now, been testing 7.18 for the last 24hrs. so for that reason alone It's worth the bother for me now!

A 16-core ARM64 clocked at 2GHz is pretty beefy, it will do about 16Gbps with some filter rules.

100GB link between the CPU and Switch chip? (rather than the 4x10GB in the CCR2116)

I have a mikrotick switch CR309-1G-8S+ with a bunch of SFP+ Ports and i recently bought this:10Gtek 1.25/2.5/5/10GBase-T SFP+ RJ-45 CAT.6a Copper Transceiver, up to 30 meters, Compatible with Cisco SFP-10G-T-S, link -> https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0BG55X2P9?smid=ADD8GDUWB40L7&th=1

When i connect the transceiver to my sfp+ port it does not detect it.But if i reconnect my old 1G SFP to RJ45 Mini-Gbic Module 100-meter, 1000Base-T Copper TransceiverIt gets detected fine.

What settings do i need to do in order to get my new transiever working?

I checked my mikrotick winbox settings via ethernet interface tab and tried setting the speed to 10gbps , tx flow control and rx flow control off and disabling auto negotiation and no joy.

On my 1gbps transceiver i had this set like mentioned above but speed set to 1GBps

Is the switch seeing the module? 10GbE modules draw a lot of power so it might just not be compatible.

Managed to fix it. Had to install new OS

Recently used a 4g mikrotik router, once flashed to latest firmware, it was nice to see a more modern gui.

I feel like they need a middle ground gui. Somewhere between total noob easy mode and level 10000 expert.

Strongly considering one for my next home router.
